On behalf of the organizers, the President of ALE "Civil Alliance of Kazakhstan" KozhakhmetovAssylbekBazarbaevich delivered a congratulatory speech. In his speech, he noted the usefulness of Zeren 2019 project: “We have prepared young people initiated by President Kassym-ZhomartTokayev in June this year. He focused on the fact that young people are the locomotive of upcoming reforms. The president spoke of creating a talent pool of 300 people before the end of this year. Also creating the conditions for the self-realization of talented youth in the economy, science, culture and sports, on ensuring transparency and effectiveness of social elevators for young people. You should know that the state pays great attention to youth issues and cares about you.” During the presentation, A. Kozhakhmetov thanked the sponsors, motivational speakers, experts and business trainers, mentors, organizers represented by ALE "Civil Alliance of Kazakhstan", the educational partnerrepresented by AlmaU, translators and volunteers.
Further, the Vice-Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Zhakypova Fatima Nadyrovna, gave a positive assessment to all the projects of the participants: “I am sincerely glad to everything I see here. “Zeren-2019” Camp is the quintessence of the best young minds, who offer today non-standard ways to solve many problems in our lives. I want to wish each of you to become a successful entrepreneur, give a way to your ideas, apply them and show them not only to Kazakhstan, but to the whole world."
The second season, which took place from July 13 - 20 this year, was remembered by the participants for the following striking events:
- On July 11, a poetic challenge started in our country, which was launched by a nine-year-old schoolgirl from Nur-Sultan, LyaimRyskali. She appealed to the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-ZhomartTokaev. He, in turn, supported her and read Abai’spoem “Gylymtappaimattanba”. Challenge is dedicated to the upcoming anniversary - 175th anniversary of the great Kazakh poet, philosopher AbayKunanbaev. It is gratifying that "Zeren 2019" Republican Camp on July 16 took the baton from the Deputy Vice Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan GulsharaAbdykalikova. 56 young camp participants participated in the poetic #Abai challenge.
- in their free time from training and design work, the participants swam in Lake Zerendinsky, went to the mountains. I remember the joint trip to Bear Hill, whose height is 600 meters. It would seem that this is not so much, but to go up there for each participant was a kind of little feat. The extraordinary landscapes that surround you when you are standing on top, and the awareness of the distance traveled, bring great pleasure and joy. The amazing nature of the region did not leave anyone indifferent.
Everyone was looking forward to the highlight of the season - the awarding ceremony for the winning teams. The winners of the second season of the educational camp are:
